Android Integration

  1. Generate and upload your certificate

  2. Add the following to your root level build.gradle file

    dependencies {
        ...
        classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.15'
    }
    
  3. Add the following to your app level build.gradle file

    apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'
    
  4. Place the google-services.json got from Step 1 in the Android app folder ex: project-dir/android/app

  5. You have to integrate Firebase Service as explained here

  6. You must request the Notifications, Locations permissions for user to get the notifications and geofence notifications to come through. You can refer example code

        const requestNotificationPermission = async () => {
        const notificationPerm = PermissionsAndroid.PERMISSIONS.POST_NOTIFICATIONS;
        const granted = PermissionsAndroid.RESULTS.GRANTED;
        try {
        const grantedPerm =
            (await PermissionsAndroid.requestMultiple([notificationPerm]))[
            notificationPerm
            ] === granted;
        console.log(`Notification Permisson: ${grantedPerm}\n`);
        return grantedPerm;
        } catch (err) {
        setResult('Error');
        console.warn(err);
        }
        return false;
    };
    
    const requestLocationPermissionAndroid = async () => {
        const finePerm = PermissionsAndroid.PERMISSIONS.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION;
        const bckgPerm = PermissionsAndroid.PERMISSIONS.ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION;
        const granted = PermissionsAndroid.RESULTS.GRANTED;
        try {
        const grantedFine =
            (await PermissionsAndroid.requestMultiple([finePerm]))[finePerm] ===
            granted;
        const grantedBckg =
            (await PermissionsAndroid.requestMultiple([bckgPerm]))[bckgPerm] ===
            granted;
        console.log(
            `Fine Location: ${grantedFine}\nBackground Location: ${grantedBckg}\n`,
        );
        return grantedFine && grantedBckg;
        } catch (err) {
        setResult('Error');
        console.warn(err);
        }
        return false;
    };
    
  7. There is no way you can initialise the SDK from the React native layer yet. So you need to initialise it in native side. You can get the API key and secret from the Pushologies portal. Initialise your SDK as follows in the Application class. Application class is usually found in this path: /android/app/src/main/java/com/project_name/MainApplication.java

    @Override
    public void onCreate() {
        super.onCreate();
        Log.i("PushSDKModule", "onCreate");
        PushSDKModule.initSDKWithPushSDKConfig(this,
              new PushSDKConfig(
              "XXXX-XXXXX-XXXX-XXXX", //api key
              "XXXX+XXXXX+XXXXXXXXX", //api secret
              "0.0.1", // your app version
              null, // set your customer id here or enter null
              PushSDKConnectionType.ALL, // content download connection type
              true, // enable location data
              true, // enable debug logs
              true, // enable geofence based notifications
              20))  // max geofence limit
        );
        ...
    }
    
  8. You should start receiving the Pushologies notifications, Refer here for additional APIs

Broadly there are two ways you can handle Firebase notifications, One from the react native if you are using some react Native Firebase library, and another is to handle it in the native modules, Please do the following based on your needs.

Using Firebase in Native Module

  1. If you don't have your own FirebaseMessagingService implemented in the native Android module, you just have add the following to your AndroidManifest.xml

    <application>
        <service
            android:name="com.pushologies.pushologiesnotifications.PushSDKFirebaseService"
            android:exported="false">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="com.google.firebase.MESSAGING_EVENT" />
            </intent-filter>
        </service>
    </application>
    
  2. Or, If you have your FirebaseMessagingService implemented and you're okay to inherit PushSDKFirebaseService, then implement

    class MyFirebaseService: PushSDKFirebaseService() {
        override fun onMessageReceived(remoteMessage: RemoteMessage) {
            super.onMessageReceived(remoteMessage)
        }
    
        override fun onNewToken(token: String) {
            super.onNewToken(token)
        }
    }
    

    and add this to your AndroidManifest.xml as follows

    <application>
    <service
        android:name=".MyFirebaseService"
        android:exported="false">
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="com.google.firebase.MESSAGING_EVENT" />
        </intent-filter>
    </service>
    </application>
    
  3. Alternatively, If you have your own FirebaseMessagingService implemented butNOT okay to inherit PushSDKFirebaseService then you can do following in your service and register the service in Manifest as shown in previous step.

    class MyFirebaseService: FirebaseMessagingService() {
        override fun onMessageReceived(remoteMessage: RemoteMessage) {
            super.onMessageReceived(remoteMessage)
            PushSDKModule.onFirebaseMessageReceived(remoteMessage)
        }
    }
    

Using Firebase from React Native node package

  1. If you have your React native Firebase implementation then you can pass the message down to PushSDKModule as follows.

    function configureFirebase() {
        messaging().setBackgroundMessageHandler(async remoteMessage => {
            var data = JSON.stringify(remoteMessage.data)
            PushSDKModule.onFirebaseMessageReceived(data);
        });
    
        messaging().onMessage(async remoteMessage => {
            var data = JSON.stringify(remoteMessage.data);
            console.log(`Push Message: ${data}`);
            PushSDKModule.onFirebaseMessageReceived(data);
        });
    }
    

iOS Integration

  1. Apple Developer Portal Configuration

  2. Pushologies Portal Configuration

  3. Xcode Project Configuration

    • Follow the Steps mentioned in this guide
    • Make sure to apply those configurations to proect-dir/ios/
    • Pod for the app target in the Podfile is not necessary. However you need to add it to your extensions
    • Make sure you correctly setup the NotificationServiceExtension and NotificationContentExtension as mentioned in the guide linked to the step
  4. You may have to rename your AppDelegate.mm to AppDelegate.m so that you don't get the compilation errors importing the @import pushologies_notifications

  5. Add following Push notifications delegates to your AppDelegate

    @import pushologies_notifications;
    
    ...
    
    - (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken:(NSData *)deviceToken {
        [PushSDKModule application:application didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken:deviceToken];
    }
    
    - (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didReceiveRemoteNotification:(NSDictionary * userInfo fetchCompletionHandler:(void (^)(UIBackgroundFetchResult))completionHandler {
        [PushSDKModule application:application didReceiveRemoteNotification:userInfo fetchCompletionHandler:completionHandler];
    }
    
    - (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didFailToRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithError:(NSError *)error {
        [PushSDKModule application:application didFailToRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithError:error];
    }
    
    - (void)application:(UIApplication *)application handleEventsForBackgroundURLSession:(NSString*)identifier completionHandler:(void (^)(void))completionHandler {
        [PushSDKModule application:application handleEventsForBackgroundURLSession:identifier completionHandler:completionHandler];
    }
    
  6. Initialise your SDK as follows in the AppDelegate class. AppDelegate is usually found in
    ios/project_name/AppDelegate.m
    Also note that you must rename your AppDelegate.mm to AppDelegate.m for you to use @import pushologies_notifications; without any compilation errors

    ```sh
    - (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
        self.moduleName = @"TestProject";
        // You can add your custom initial props in the dictionary below.
        // They will be passed down to the ViewController used by React Native.
        self.initialProps = @{};
        
        //Initialise the PushSDK here
        [PushSDKModule initPushSDK:<API KEY> secret:<API SECRET>];
    
        return [super application:application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:launchOptions];
    }
    ```
    
  7. You should start receiving the Pushologies notifications, Refer here for additional APIs

  • To subscribe and unsubscribe tags

    const subscribeTag = async () => {
        try {
            await PushSDKModule.subscribeTag(TAG);
        } catch {}
    };
    
    const unsubscribeTag = async () => {
        try {
            await PushSDKModule.unsubscribeTag(TAG);
        } catch {}
    };
    
  • To set and get customer id

    const setCustomerId = async () => {
        try {
            await PushSDKModule.setCustomerId(TAG);
        } catch {}
    };
    
    const getCustomerId = async () => {
        try {
            await PushSDKModule.getCustomerId();
        } catch {}
    };
    
  • To get the device id
    sh const getDeviceId = async () => { try { await PushSDKModule.getDeviceId(TAG); } catch {} };
